No doubt someone complained and the Archive decided to take down that page immediately rather than investigate and verify the claim first because it is far easier to play it safe.
Even when the claim would inevitably be proven false, the fraudulent claimant could press the matter long enough to make the pretrial process of discovery quite expensive. All it takes for such a fraud to succeed is the threat that they might get away with not being forced to recompense the Archive for legal costs.
Eventually the initial complaint may be tested and the person who sent it may be charged for the fraud under the appropriate laws but the Archive is under no obligation to protect the public domain from such abuses, and we should not expect it to take a stand on this matter.

I just looked at this movie and at 00:02:18 I find:
MCMLXIII BY UNIVERSAL PICTURES COMPANY, INC. and STANLEY DONEN FILMS, INC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
The only part missing is the word "Copyright" or the copyright symbol, which was absolutely required.
I wonder if they would sue Maurice Binder ( http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0082800/bio ) if he was still alive today. ;]
